what do we do about this?
Bentley has been climbing out of her crib for some time now. We just lock her door so she can't come out and then unlock it and check on her before we go to bed. It sounds so cruel I know, but we have to or she will keep coming out. She doesn't cry, she will just play with her toys or pull her clothes out of her dresser and try to change. But I think what happens is she plays for a while and by the time she goes to get back in the crib it is much darker and she can't see where to climb. This is what she resorts to... falling asleep on the floor. Usually we find her up against the door asleep, but this night we came in and looked around the floor, no Bentley. We looked in her crib, no Bentley. I was panicked for about a second, thinking where the heck is she. Then Jeff got down and looked under her crib. I have no idea what possessed her to fall asleep under her crib right up against the wall. She is such a monkey. What do we do with her? I think we are way over due for a big girl bed.
Of course she was a little startled when we had to pull her out. She didn't want to go in her bed so Jeff let her sleep in ours.

Di I love the locking the door idea, I would probably consider that option if our doors weren't so jacked that they actually don't close. Look, Bentley is fine, and it looks like she had a great time in her room. Also, the smile on her face is priceless as she is laying in your bed. (hehehe she has your number).
Lets play soon!!!!
I am DYING!! I love little Bent!
Oooo I miss that li'l monkey! Hey, by the way, do you guys have Elle's flight attendant "bobbie" by chance?
Too cute Di!
Yeah, I would bet that she's ready for a big-girl bed. Ashley started getting out of bed and wanting out. I told her as long as she stayed in her bed, I would keep the door open a tad. If she tried to get out, I was going to shut it closed. That seemed to work for us, not all the time, but most times.
It's a frustrating time, but kind of funny too.
Hi Di. We had to get a crib tent for both Jake and Crew (babies r us) to keep them from climbing out. Although you probably need your crib for Reese.
